The 5th Annual Vette/Mopar/Prowler Benefit Race Day is Scheduled for Sunday, Mar. 16th, 2008 at No Problem Raceway in Belle Rose, LA.


The format will be the same as last year and each participating club contribute $100. I’m sponsoring the POA & any other Prowler group that wants to play. We'll run on the 1.8 mile Road course in the morning and move over to the Drag Strip around noon. Event Fee same as last year - $20 car & driver; $10 for Spectators and kids 10 & under are Free.


Tentative Schedule - Sunday, Mar. 16th, 2008:
8:00 AM - Track Opens
8:30 AM - Road Course Laps Begin
11:30 AM - Road Course Laps End
NOON: - Drag Strip Time Trials Begin
2:30 PM - 1st Round Bracket Classes Begin


There will be Three Classes for Drag Racing (Race Car, Street Car, & Vette/Mopar Only). Trophies for 1st & Runnerup in both the Race Car & Street Car classes. Trophies for 1st, runnerup, Semifinalists & Quarterfinalists in the Vette vs Mopar/Prowler Class. The Race Car Class will be limited to Two Time Trial runs. The Vette/Mopar Class will get unlimited time trial runs until the start of 1st round of Bracket Races. All Car Club members should enter the Vette/Mopar Class. The Race Car Class will be limited to 40 cars (same as last year). We've had this class for each of the 1st four years and is open to people who want to help support the Event's Beneficiary and hopefully brings out more spectators. It has never been a problem in restricting track time for club members.


Each year the Beneficiary is selected in consultation with NPR Management. This year's Beneficiary is Sharee Lanoux (she's the EMT that staffed the ambulance for our event last year). Sharee has lung cancer and mid November discovered she has four Tumors on her brain. The prognosis is not very good. Sharee works as an EMT at the track often and was there for our Grand Bayou Race on Sunday. In addition she works as a Special Ed. Aide at St. Amant High School. She is a real outgoing person and plans to fight this against all odds.


Last year we had a Large group of Prowlers & owners. If your schedules permit, we love to see you again in 2008. I’ll setup a block of rooms at the Best Western in Donaldsonville in January. Mark your calendars… Thanks for the consideration and here’s link to No Problem Raceway.

Laddie, I look forward to being there again. Last year was a great time, but I will limit my time trial runs to conserve tread on my Dunlop 9000's. I must have made at least 10 time trial runs and burned off half my tread, but that made Cnote6 happy LOL. Thanks for sponsoring this for us and I know it will be a great time.

You still have time to book rooms and individuals can cancel up to the day of reservation.
